    I don't think Davis will win the job right away, he has some technique problems, apparently he has a frog stance.

    Our best starting group is Lewan, Saffold, Jones, Conklin, Kelly. Whether or not our coaches are smart enough to put that group on the field opening day remains to be seen.

    When moving Conklin to guard has come up in the past, it's pretty much always shot down by J-Rob and Vrabel. I think part of it is J-Rob's ego, who used his first ever pick on Conklin to play tackle and doesn't want to see a top 10 pick move positions. I also think part of it is they want to keep Conklin long term and moving him inside might hurt their relationship with him because he sees himself as a tackle, there is more money to be made at tackle and he'd be less likely to resign if they move him.

    My two cents anyway.

    i think this is more the reason than anything, Conk has been pretty straightforward in saying "I'm a tackle" in interviews. he knows he could just hit FA and probably play LT somewhere and get paid way more. he has the all-pro moniker from that first season, he'll get paid as a tackle one way or another.

    Kelly isn't that great

    I think the best will end up being:

    Lewan -- Saffold -- Levin -- Jones -- Conklin

    Kelly has gotten pretty good for a swing Tackle

    If he has to start I'm not worried

    Good enough for that

    I agree, keep him as a swing tackle

    I tend to think the guy cashes in soon and leaves us. He hasnt had much bad tape while a Titan, Someone will probably bet on him and pay him.

    That is unless Conklin blows and is let go. Then Kelly stays... All in all we're sitting pretty at tackle right now.

    OL men move inside as their careers progress... except for the ones that dont of course.

    Matthews played all 5 positions as a starter over his career. I am not saying Conklin is Matthews... but I am not saying that he is not either - LOL
